    Staff were inattentive, and no where to be found for extended periods. Server did not check to see if we were happy with our drink and or food, did not clear the table and offered dessert when we had already paid. Server had a closet full of excuses to boot. The table beside us independently complained as well.

    The atmosphere and service were lovely! Staff were kind and attentive. The ambience was nice with a live dj. However, the reason we will not go back is the poor quality of food. The fajita tortillas were thick, the fajitas and enchiladas were bland, lacking any real flavor.

    Not worth the extra money to have guacamole made at your table. The smoked Carne Asada meat was not as good as it was before when it wasn’t smoked. Miss the endless chips and salsa. Overall I would not go to a Cantina again.

    This was my third visit over the last couple of months. Unfortunately this time was not a very good experience. The food was good, but not excellent. Items got missed, service was slow, slow to deliver basic things like utensils. Also even though I had made a reservation for 5 several weeks ago, they sat us at a bench table for 4. We even had to ask for an extra chair. Also they sat us at a table in front of the main doors. It was a freezing night and with the doors being constantly held open, it was very unpleasant for half of the people at our table.

    Haven't been in a few years, so was pleasantly surprised by the new decor and set up. Service was great, table side guacamole was good, food was OK. The portion sizes have gotten smaller and prices higher. I had 1 slice of green pepper and 1 slice of red pepper in my Fajitas. The enchiladas were the size of 2 small soft tacos you'd get in an el Paso taco kit and very little red sauce.
